BCSC educates companies about B.C.'s money raising rules

VANCOUVER, Nov. 29, 2013 /CNW/ - The BC Securities Commission (BCSC) is
reaching out to small businesses around the province with new online materials and province-wide presentations aimed at informing small businesses
about B.C.'s capital raising rules.

"We are offering this information to small business owners because they
may not yet have professional advisors who specialize in this area,"
said Peter Brady, the BCSC's Director of Corporate Finance. "In a
nutshell, we want them to understand B.C.'s securities rules so they
stay on track and raise money in a timely and efficient way."

The BCSC's publication, Capital Raising for Small Business, is a free guide available for download. It covers a range of topics,
including:

Defining a security and the key principles of securities laws

Discussing differences between the private placement market and public
capital markets
